Celebrate 13 Years of EverQuest II: The Heroes' Festival has Arrived!

Adventurers of Norrath - it is time for us to come together once more to celebrate and commemorate another year of EverQuest II! So far, we have been through 13 incredible years of questing, crafting, adventuring, and coming together as friends.

From November 3, 2017 until November 15, 2017, you can celebrate the 13th Anniversary of EverQuest II at the annual Heroes' Festival! The cities of Qeynos and Freeport are all abuzz with festivities, so head on over if you want to join in on the fun!



As the tradition goes, there are a number of celebratory features and events returning to the Heroes’ Festival! The most notable is the Mischeva’s Clothworks event, where a band of traveling play-actors bring the stories of Norrath's past to life. Not in the mood for questing? You can also defeat the clothwork bosses across Norrath to earn Mischeva’s Tribute, which you can spend on items from the festival merchants!

This year, a number of new Heroes’ Festival items are also available! The merchants in Freeport and Qeynos have new house items for you to purchase with your Tokens of Heroism. There are also new equipment items you can purchase using Mischeva's Tribute, including the Bloodmane Clothwork Steed mount.



The Stormhold server will get the full Heroes’ Festival event (with the exception of two fights) along with all of the live servers! Heroes' Festival content will not be available on Fallen Gate this year, as the proper content has not yet unlocked on the Time-Locked Expansion Server.

Cheers to spending 13 years in Norrath! What's your favorite memory (old or new) from your time in EverQuest II?

Hi Roxxlyy, quick question: The in-game calendar shows the event going through 11/15/2017. Can you please confirm which is the correct end date? Many thanks!

Er, yeah...the 15th would be infinitely better.

Er... I've lied to you all. It's definitely the 15th. Thank you for catching that!

Woot, awesome! Thank you!

Yeah, amen! Thanks for the clarification!

My favorite EQII memory: Launch of KoS! When Lashka arrived from the skies after hours and hours of constructing the spires. I remember it was in the middle of the night and we took it in turns until the raid formed. ^__^

And of course: Camping Rama'nai for heritage quest... *hehehe*

*sigh*

I am not seeing any of the quest givers in Qeynos on the Fallen Gater server. I thought it was supposed to be available.

Heroes' Festival content will not be available on Fallen Gate this year, as the proper content has not yet unlocked on the Time-Locked Expansion Server.

I can celebrate the festvial even without having my 13th year veteran reward. Hooah!

My favourite memory was running across Antonica at level 10 (ish), stopping for a shiney too close to a gnoll camp and getting killed. Then having to try and run back to collect my Spirit Shard.

I actually miss Spirit Shards - some of the best and most exciting moments were made trying to collect them

Nice! awesome celebration!

Everyone is usually so cooperative and it's great fun to bring down a "dragon".

Even though the items you can buy with the tokens are generally meh, this event always brings out the best in my server. Excellent coordination and communication to kill the puppets and it's actually fun to fight alongside people of varying levels and skill.
